I'm curious about the nuances of this, I haven't seen this argument made elsewhere yet, but it does seem to make sense that you would make that kind of exception. Even when you buy a house as-is, exceptions are generally going to be made for existential threats (leans on the house, title issues, etc.) outside of the _condition_ of the house. But it still feels like posturing, especially since he knew this was an issue before he made the offer, why not explicitly call this out in the contract? It definitely feels like the weight of the economy collapsing is the substantive issue.
